When Williot Swedberg was substituted in after 65 minutes, Real Madrid were leading 3–0 at home on Santiago Bernabéu, following a goal by Arda Güler and two by Kylian Mbappé.
However, the guests from Galicia managed to create unexpected tension in the match. Javi Rodríguez scored the first reduction, before Williot Swedberg, set free by Iago Aspas, nicely finished to 2–3> with a quarter left.
It was the 21-year-old Swede's fourth league goal. It was also the match's final goal and Real Madrid held on to three important points in their pursuit of Barcelona.
With four rounds left of La Liga, Barça lead four points ahead of Real Madrid. The two arch-rivals will meet at Camp Nou next weekend.
